Milan is incredible! I'm a season ticket holder with Inter Milan and go over there at least once a month. It is an amazing city. Whoever up above said that there is only the Duomo to see is talking rubbish. How about La Scala for a start? Then lets not forget some of the best museums and galleries in the country and then there is the fact that this is the fashion capital of Italy and there are some great shops in 'the Golden Triangle'. Great place for you or your wife to grab a beautiful bag or something from Gucci or Vuitton. you could even hunt out some bargains in the shops that sell last season's stuff.
The San Siro is incredible and worth a visit if you are a sports fan.
You can also pop out of the city to the lakes if you fancy...great thing about Milan is that there are not too many tourists, it's a great city to visit but one that is not built around (or spoilt by) tourism.
One place I can highly recommend is my favourite local restaurant which is simply fantastic. It's called Gianat, and is on Via Muratori ang L. Papi, (20135 is the area code) It's great easy to get to as well from the tube, I've got a number too PM me if you want it.
Have a great time a'Italia! of course the other cities you are visiting are amazing too especially love Roma! although Pisa I can take or leave to be honest - nice though it is there isn't much to do...and the leaning tower is somewhat underwhelming! although no trip to Italy is complete without 'that' picture leaning against the tower!
